Burn Away
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
I have spent a lifetime
Waiting for the chance
Save you my confession
Save me your last dance
The same old superstitions haunt us now and then
I'm begging for ignition to start it all again
We'll burn away, burn away, burn away my pride
We'll burn away, burn away, burn away my pride
We'll burn away, from all the other flames that burn tonight
We'll burn away, burn away, burn away my pride
Breathe for me from now on
Breathe for me when I'm gone
Burn out beyond,
Out beyond the sun
Will you still remember
There behind the skies
Walking on the embers
Standing in their light
The hardest part is knowing
Everything must die
The hardest part is waiting here
Ready to collide
We'll burn away, burn away, burn away my pride
We'll burn away, burn away, burn away my pride
We'll burn away, from all the other flames that burn tonight
We'll burn away, burn away, burn away my pride
Breathe for me from now on
Breathe for me when I'm gone
Burn out beyond,
Out beyond the sun
Burn on, burn on high until you
Burn on, burn on high until you
Burn on, burn
Or never burn again
Never burn again
Never burn again
We'll never burn again
Never burn again
